The media has a small mob of people camped outside of his elevators at his Trump building in NYC. So basically the media knows everyone who is coming and going. They even use cameras to zoom in and try to read any documents the people might be carrying too.

I don't know if he is using a "bait and switch" technique, but neither he nor any of his people are talking to the media, and they can't stand it. They then begin speculating and quoting "unnamed" sources for every person they see. Most of the quotes are just from other media members who started speculating. Trump is simply not going to give the media anything, so to get back at him, they postulate about someone, and then denigrate the choice, before they have any facts. Nothing new there, but it's funny to watch. They are even criticizing the choices, he actually has made, because he has chosen so many former military members. They will never learn, and all they want to do is try to stir up controversy. I hope he keeps them outside through the coldest weather they have in NYC, and not announce any more appointments until the last minute.JMHO

While I detest the words "tweet or twitter" Trump uses such and goes completely around the leftist press.

It's driving them bonkers...they are becoming irrelevant.

I say: Ha Ha! (Much like Nelson on the Simpsons who derisively points and laughs as his trademark...)

Trump has already chosen two retired generals for his administration.

He's not going to go for a third...

Looks like he did pick a third. Also, for the progressives among us that want to criticize Trump's choices of military me, didn't Obama pick some also.

G26ster,

I stand corrected.

Obviously, I can't keep up.
